14th of November - First Japanese Class.

I never thought that I would learn Japanese. My mother told me take courses last year but I was like, lazy. Eeeks. But then I wanted to be serious about it and now I had already taken my first lesson.

My brother, who also attended the class with me had a great time learning a new language. In a little air-conditioned room, students like us waited for the arrival of our Japanese teacher, Mr.Lum.


Ringo, where we learn Japanese. It means apple.

When Mr.Lum arrived, he greeted us by saying, "Ohayo-gozaimasu." And the whole class was silent except my brother, who eagerly greeted him back. Mr.Lum repeated a few times to get us back to greeting him.

Without saying anything, he wrote some simple romaji sentences for us to introduce ourselves. At first I thought he was Japanese, because he said Japanese whenever we made a mistake, but his name wasn't Japanese so it doesn't make sense.

Anyways, we are taught grammars, vocabulary and some hiragana. The class was interesting and at least I was never bored. But I was struggling remembering the hiragana and unable to read some of them, though ._.

Two and a half hours wasn't as long as I thought and soon everyone left the classroom. When we went downstairs to wait for my mother, I was trying to remember the hiraganas. My brother was better than me, boohoo.

But it was fun. Looking forward for next class next week.

Thoughts about HTTYD: The Hidden World

Image
On the first of February, I went to the cinema with my brother and a close friend of mine to watch How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World. It's the third and last film for the almost decade-long series. If you didn't know or aren't my Twitter follower, I am a huge fan of HTTYD. I became so impatient when they wouldn't enter the theatre on time. I kept mentioning that I waited five years for this, and I didn't want to miss any second of it. We did miss a few seconds of the movie because I went to the bathroom. After the movie ended and the credits started to roll, I didn't really know how to feel about the movie. I told myself some time to gather my thoughts about the movie. I wrote my first draft while I was celebrating Chinese New Year in my hometown, but I had to stop myself to think about it again. I'm wondering if I should watch the movie again and think it through but I don't know when the movie will be available for streaming so I

The Handsome Side Of Biology.

LOOKEY GRAY FULLBUSTER IS LOOKING AT ME < 3 --- I once gave that title (look at blog post title) to my tuition teacher who taught us Biology, but he doesn't know that. Mr Jay (not his real name) teaches Biology (duh) at ERA for I don't know how many years and among all the teachers, he's the youngest I think. I can say he's quite good looking and he has a great personality. I first saw him when I went to a seminar for PMR. I was sitting far away so I couldn't really see his face. I just remembered he made us laugh a lot and no doubt, he's good at what he's doing. He works at the hospital too. When I came into Form 4, I attended his class and yeah, I thought he was handsome. Lots of girls liked his looks and even Mr Ding, the owner of ERA said he is handsome. A couple of my friend went crazy over him. I got over it after a few weeks. HE'S A TEACHER COME ONNN. So anyway, yesterday was our last class, you could say. Mr Jay never came on

Ballet Grade 6

Image
Having my Grade 6 examination soon. Makes me go nervous AHHHH. Grade 6 isn't children grade anymore, it's a performance grade, where you seriously need facial expression, eye focus and blah blah blah. Just like what my teacher says. Everything need to be done, performance-y. I had two regrets during this grade. ONE. I choose PINK for my leotard instead of BLUE! I have always loved the colour pink. If it's possible, I would choose pink every time. But this time, I preferred blue much more than pink. The reason I wanted blue because I wanted to choose the Free Movement dance, so I thought. Maybe, if I choose blue, it will be more nicer than pink. And it looks more. MORE NICE LOL. When all of us were making final decisions, I heard the pianist said : "If you pick blue and dancing Free Movement, it will be like water flowing around. It will definitely look great. " Oh, that really, really brighten up my day x) But no, my own teacher took away my confidence >___>
